Treatment and symptoms of Chloride 68 mmol/L | Diet for low Chloride level 68 mmol/L
Low Chloride level of 68 can cause a number of symptoms.
An abnormal chloride level of 68 may disrupt your body's fluid balance and acid-base regulation. A chloride value of 68 can contribute to symptoms such as fatigue, dehydration, muscle weakness, and confusion. Since chloride works closely with other electrolytes like sodium and potassium, abnormal levels can signal kidney dysfunction, metabolic acidosis or alkalosis, or issues with adrenal gland function. Regular chloride assessments help maintain proper hydration and cellular function. There are many treatment methods available, but the key is changing your diet right away.
